There was an article that predicted that in 2009 the American People will embrace an even more Socialistic State in order to relieve their economic Pain. They said that it would be the largest transfer of Power to Washington since the New Deal in the 30's.
So My question is this, how many Freedoms are you willing to give up in order for your economic pain to be supposedly removed? How much is too much? Are you willing to pay all you make over to the Government, maybe even be told what to do, in order to have your Economic suffering relieved?
How important is your Freedom and Liberty? Is it worth Suffering over? Or is your Comfort More important?

"But war, in a good cause, is not the greatest evil which a nation can suffer. War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice – a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice – is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other." - John Stuart Mill
